This is fair. Rodgers didn't have a good game. He didn't have an "awful" game. Jimmy Garrapolo had an awful game. Our special teams directly lead to a 10 point swing, which, well, we lost by 3 points, so, yeah. Yes, Rodgers obviously can, and should have played better. There's no getting around that. In any football game that you lose by 3 points, there's any number of plays that you can say "that play could have been the difference maker". Rodgers shoulders a large part of the blame. But like you said, for once, it would have been nice if when he wasn't quite on, the special teams would have even been "subpar" instead of predictably awful, we'd be moving on to play in the NFCCG. That's all we needed from the special teams. Just not allow a blocked kick. They could have even allowed the 50 yard kick return. Or even 2 of them. Just not allow a blocked kick. That's setting the bar pretty low, and they failed.
